Sleep and Cognition in Parkinson’s Disease:
A Research Study at Boston University

  • Sleep problems are common in Parkinson’s disease.  This study will examine how sleep problems may affect cognition (thinking), perception, and mood.
  • You will be assessed for cognition, perception, and mood. You will be asked to answer sleep questionnaires, keep a sleep diary, and wear small activity monitors for a week.  You will sleep at home as usual.
  • We are looking for volunteers who:
    • Are in good general health with no neurological disorders
      OR
    • Have a diagnosis of Parkinson’s disease without dementia
  • If you agree to participate in this research study, you will be reimbursed for your efforts.
